About Market Tavern

The Market Tavern stands right in Durham's Market Place, at the very centre of the old city, with a quaint frontage and a characterful, traditional interior. It is a well-placed spot for a drink or a meal while exploring the surrounding streets, shops and market hall, and keeps a convivial, homely atmosphere.

Inside there is a wood-burning stove and a range of well-kept ales, craft lagers and ciders, complemented by classic British pub food. The pub is dog friendly and keeps long opening hours through the week. Its position on the Market Place, moments from the river and the peninsula, makes it one of the more visible and accessible traditional pubs in the heart of Durham.
